Can't wait for sunday
Me and my bird are taking a one way flight up to Scotland to pick up our New Black Crossfire SRT 6 nd then driving 360 miles back to Essex with it

 

congrats. That should be one fun trip home! Enjoy it every mile!

 

Yes it should be 7 hours none stop driving experience, Maybe a quick coffee break inbetween

 

7 hours in a Crossfire!?! I had no idea there was that much realestate in the British Isles.

Sounds like a load of fun. Enjoy your new toy.

Regards

 

There's coffee in Britain?

I had a similar experience picking mine up... drove 500 mi total! It was a nice honeymoon Congrats on the new car!

 

Yes pretty much one end of the country to the other

I've never driven that far before so should be interesting, I'm going to take all my cd's I've been meaning to listen to

 

Yes we have coffee (even starbucks), countryside and lots of rain

Did you drive in 1 day? What mpg on motorway driving should I expect do you think?

 

yup all done in one day! drove there, drove back with two cars, and made it back in time for work!

i got about 24 mpg on the trip if i recall correctly. US gallons of course .

every time you hit warp speed though, the fuel gauge goes down a notch.

 

Congrats! You are going to love it!

 

you are gonna have a blast congrats

 

Congratulations, and welcome to the forum. You will enjoy this ride, and have some great GTGs with our UK friends. They're a good bunch.

 

Congrats on your new crossfire!!! Let us know the details on it! Year, mileage, color, etc...

 

Congrats! Black STR-6 RULE!

 

Congrats and good luck.

 

Ybesty, I drove 1110 miles (round trip) to pick up my new 04 Crossfire starting on "April Fools Day" 2005. (Some Z owners would probably say "how appropriate".)
Had a great time "bonding" with my new car. I'm sure it will be a fun time for you. Take some photos along the way for your scrap book. (you will be glad you did).
By the way, what kind of car is that in your Avatar?
Welcome to the forum.

 

Yep I remember that day too. That will have been 4 years ago in about 2 weeks !

 

That should be a beautiful drive, i bet you will have a lot of fun!

 

Welcome to SRT-6 ownership and hope you can get used to 16mpg town and 24mpg on a run like I have with my new SRT-6 Roadster that I bought after test driving car you have just bought. I am assuming you bought black coupe from Stirling previously at a branch in Kilmarnock. I prefer coupe especially in black but decided on Roadster as always wanted a convertible. Hope you enjoy the car and if you ever want to compare notes / chat about any problems then drop me a note.

Cheers
John

 

Hi John, yes got the car from stirling, had a lovely drive down the A1. What a fantastic car. Do you know much about this car
When i picked him up the ABS LIGHT was on, the steering wheel was not straight and if that wasn't enough the was a very slight winding coming from the rear wheel bearing, so booked him in at the merc/chrysler for the ABS light and a health check, They done the light, sorted the geometry out and put new wheel bearings on all under the warranty,

 

Thats wierd

I bought my SRT from scotland and drove it back to kent ! part exchanged the old crossfire when i got there!

Glad you got back ok

the guys here would like to know the last 6 or some numbers of the vin, they like to see where it is in the factory run.

hope you enjoy it as much as i have, make sure you do a track day with it
